Help me in Lighttpd [403 - Forbidden] Error

[SnowDoN]

Hello guys

i installed lighttpd using this

Why lighttpd and not Apache? First of all, what is lighttpd? These four words can describe lighttpd ? security, speed, compliance, and flexibility. lighttpd (pron. lighty) is a web server that has been optimized for high performance environment. With its very low memory footprint compared to other web servers, takes care of CPU load and advanced feature-set (FastCGI, CGI, Auth, Output-Compression, URL-Rewriting and many more) makes lighttpd the perfect web server software for every server that suffers load problems. Best of all lighttpd powers several popular Web 2.0 sites like YouTube, wikipedia and meebo.

Let?s get started. I am running CentOS 5 64-bit. You can?t get lighttpd from the official CentOS 5.0 repositories. We have to download lighttpd from DAG RPM Repository. Let?s download these packages lighttpd and lighttpd-fastcgi like this: -

wget -c http://packages.sw.be/lighttpd/lighttpd-1.4.28-1.el5.rf.x86_64.rpm

wget -c http://packages.sw.be/lighttpd/lighttpd-fastcgi-1.4.28-1.el5.rf.x86_64.rpm

Next, we can install the lighttpd and lighttpd-fastcgi like this: -

rpm -ivh lighttpd-1.4.28-1.el5.rf.x86_64.rpm lighttpd-fastcgi-1.4.28-1.el5.rf.x86_64.rpm

Next, we can update the runlevel information for system services so lighttpd start up automatically whenever the system boots like this: -

chkconfig --levels 235 lighttpd on

service lighttpd start
service lighttpd restart

lighttpd?s default document root is at /srv/www/lighttpd and the configuration file is at /etc/lighttpd/lighttpd.conf on CentOS 5.

Simply create an index.html file and upload to the lighttpd document root. Now, point your favorite web browser to the lighttpd IP address and you will see the index.html file you created.

its installed fine but i chnaged root directory to /var/www/lighttpd from /srv/www/
like this

server.document-root        = "/var/www/lighttpd/" 

in

/etc/lighttpd/lighttpd.conf 

and then i install rapidleech to directory /var/www/lighttpd/rl
but when i run in i get an error
403 - Forbidden

i am not using and domain

please help me in this
